In the Czech Republic, the weather is seasonal and moderate, and with a landscape of mountains and forests you can enjoy skiing in the winter as well as camping and biking in the summer.

Work

It's relatively easy to find part-time work while studying, as well as full-time jobs on completion of a programme. International and local companies are keen to hire candidates who speak English and other languages and who come with the right qualifications, and many students find placements through our Industry Network.
